In this post-COP30 episode of The Path to Green: Taxonomies in Action, Gabriel speaks with Bridget Boulle (Climate Bonds Initiative) and Elodie Feller (UNEP FI) about what became one of the biggest themes in Belém: taxonomy interoperability.
They unpack why it dominated the COP30 agenda, how Brazil’s “Super Taxonomy” proposal shaped global discussions, and how the Taxonomy Roadmap Initiative is helping countries build taxonomies that align more easily.
Nesse episódio especial em português da série The Path to Green: Taxonomies in Action, nossos especialistas Sheila Alves e Leonardo Gava explicam os bastidores da Taxonomia Sustentável Brasileira, recém-lançada pelo Governo Brasileiro durante a Pré-COP30.
Eles detalham como o trabalho técnico e colaborativo liderado pelo Ministério da Fazenda, com apoio do PNUMA-FI, GIZ, BMZ e Ambire, resultou em um marco histórico para o financiamento sustentável no país.
O episódio também aborda a estrutura, os objetivos e os setores prioritários da Taxonomia, e como ela orientará investimentos, políticas públicas e o papel do Brasil como referência global em finanças sustentáveis.

A special conversation recorded at Hong Kong Green Week 2025.

En este episodio conversamos con Marcelo Mena, CEO del Global Methane Hub (GMH), sobre los desafíos y oportunidades para reducir las emisiones de metano, un gas de efecto invernadero con un impacto climático mucho más potente que el CO₂ a corto plazo.
Abordamos el papel del GMH como actor clave en la coordinación global para acelerar la reducción de metano, los sectores prioritarios y las innovaciones necesarias, así como la importancia de movilizar financiamiento para escalar soluciones. Finalmente, exploramos las prioridades de América Latina en el camino hacia la COP30 en Belém y lo que sería un resultado ideal de esta conferencia histórica para la región.

En este episodio de COP30 Brasil: Movilizando capital para la transición, conversamos con Lizeth Palencia, Regional Head de América Latina en Principles for Responsible Investment, sobre cómo acelerar las oportunidades para inversionistas en finanzas sostenibles.
Exploramos los principales catalizadores y aceleradores que pueden impulsar la movilización de capital hacia la transición en mercados emergentes. También discutimos los retos, el papel de la innovación para ampliar el acceso al financiamiento climático y cómo se perfila el mercado en el camino hacia la COP30.
Today on the show we’re diving into the Climate Bonds Resilience Taxonomy. Around the world, climate disasters are hitting harder; disrupting communities, infrastructure, and economies. Finance has made real progress on mitigation, reducing emissions, but resilience and adaptation need the same clarity.
That’s why Climate Bonds created the Resilience Taxonomy. Discussing this with us is our guest, Aishwarya Sankar, Senior Sustainability Analyst and Climate Bonds Resilience Taxonomy Coordinator.
Neste episódio, conversamos com Fabio Guido, Diretor de Relações Institucionais e Sustentabilidade do Itaú Unibanco, sobre como o mercado pode valorizar a proteção das florestas e da biodiversidade, bem como os mecanismos financeiros inovadores que estão surgindo para soluções baseadas na natureza.

We're back in the Café and meeting the experts once again this week. Today, we bring back Climate Bonds Director of Technical Development Caroline Harrison. We talk all things numbers; the process behind the data gathering and why Climate Bonds is the most trusted source in assessing what we consider 'green' finance.
Neste episódio, conversamos com Maria Netto, Diretora Executiva do Instituto Clima e Sociedade (iCS), sobre como garantir que a transição climática seja justa e inclusiva.

Think about the food in your kitchen... A lot of us look at the nutritional information when we buy food, but not the carbon footprint.
While us as consumers may even avoid certain food groups with an environmental rationale, wouldn't you like to see changes across the food value chain, which can mitigateemissions at post-production levels, all the things the consumers can’t control product-to-product?
With post-farm emissions rising rapidly, a publicconsultation process started earlier this year for the Climate Bonds Food Value Chain Criteria. And to celebrate its launch, we discuss the finer details with Sustainability Analyst Aishwarya Sankar.
An economics, geography and Spanish lesson all rolled into one on this episode of the Café!

The first Climate Bonds Café of 2025! We've got a good one for you...
Today, we sit down with Climate Bonds' Agri-Food Lead, Reyes Tirado to discuss the launch of the Alternative Proteins Criteria. Now, that may not sound the most relevant to your day-to-day, but did you know livestock accounts for 60% of agri-food emissions, yet provides just 17% of global calories and 38% of protein.
Alternative proteins offer a scalable, climate-aligned path to meet growing global food demand — with significantly lower environmental impact. We'll discuss with Reyes the process, the ambitions and the benefits of this world-first for sustainable finance and the food sector.
